Kabul: Supreme leader of the Taliban Mullah Hebtullah Akhundzada has directed Afghanistan's military officials not to recruit teenage members to their ranking.

The supreme leader in a decree said no teenager must be allowed in military bases of the IEA and should not be given a part in any military operation, reports Khaama Press.

“Teenagers are unable to conduct military operations and the existence of underage members in the military ranking will lead to intrigue and notoriety,” reads part of the decree as quoted by Khaama Press.

Military officials have been strictly asked to implement the order and the military commission has been given the task to disarm those who fail to implement the decree.
